Doesn't that pretty much sum it up?

If anyone's thinking of adding sea routes or anything, then I would count that as changing borders. The term borders is refering to which territories border each other. I'm not sure I can explain it any more than that.

you did not say anything about starting neutrals bonus changes autto deployment, different bonuses for the number of terits.

there are plenty of gameply changes that can be done without altering the borders.

I have several questions regarding the contest. I was going to jsut PM Keyogi but I figured that others might want to know the answers as well.

1) Do we need to provide 100% complete maps?
2) Do we need to provide both large and small versions?
3) Do we need XML?
4) After the deadline, will the vote determine the winner or several maps for final work.
5) If the voting picks one winner, will the normal foundry process take place to better refine and finally quench the map or will the winning map be quenched like it is?

1) I'm not sure what you mean by a 100% complete map, but the more complete your map looks the better your chances of getting votes.
2) No, one or the other will do.
3) No.
4) The vote will determine the winner.
5) The winning map will continue through development like any other map, I would think it unfair otherwise.

The participants of the competition will remain anonymous until voting has closed. This will ensure no preference is given to a particular cartographer, just the map on its own merits. If any signature's are visible on a map, I will blur these out myself before posting.
